Rich and Ed have another special guest - Shone Richardson - and we're talking total global turmoil and meltdown - including tariffs and their impact for US procurement; whether war with Canada is the answer (or at least stealing their timber); if an SUV is sufficient to run products across the Mexican border into the US; and if you should route all your Chinese imports via the UK with a "Made in UK" sticker.

And loads of questions from the virtual postbag - on suppliers in administration who've already taken your cash; using AI to create specifications and contract comparisons; renewing design software contracts and when to use an IT reseller.  

And lots of news, including the EU's "SAFE" financial procurement instrument for defence procurement; more on tariffs; Alchemie Network hits 5000 people; something on UK Government crime procurement we don't understand, and the new "Procurement Says No" website created from old bits of AI.

And remember to put your order in for a "Procurement Says No" t-shirt - at all good ebays.

So much excitement in 40 minutes of podcast fun.
